Stop acting like
$191 shouldn't be considered a high price for a $20 part and maybe 15 minutes of time spent outside.
Business expenses are probably more than covered by new installs/replacements...minor service calls should be used to build up clients to get those big jobs.
It may be a fair price based on the fact that everyone may be charging that...but it is not cheap.

I'm probably $600 or more ahead replacing my own capacitors
I am 61 years old and have never had a capacitor go out on any AC while I was living in the home….just lucky, I guess!
May as well go ahead and buy one tomorrow though because I probably just jinxed myself!

Wow, that's high, the capacitor was probably only $20.
True. Company had to pay for the truck, insurance, wages to repair guy, his SS, cost of the building running the business from, utilities, and taxes.
What would you charge if you had the business?

I want to have a spare capacitor on hand, I’m assuming they’re not universal? Are they specific to maker or specific unit?
